I like Fridays. My children like Fridays, today is their spelling test, which we have done numerous times this week. If they do well I do something special for them (ice cream/nails) but if they make 100 I give them $10, which they love more than anything. Lincoln likes to buy toys and Sierra loves (and I do mean loves) clothes. Wonder where in the world she gets that. Today I’m going to play at the MGM, they have a small daily tournament. I learned to play at the MGM and it therefore holds a special place in my heart. I have a friend learning his way through tournament poker there so I’m going to go and see if I can offer some hands on advice by watching his play, discussing hands during break, etc. Should be fun for a few hours.

It’s so nice to be home with some very smiling faces. School was out yesterday so I took them to seee the Justin Beiber movie, had heard it was an inspirational story. This morning Lincoln tells me if he could have anything in the world it would be to have his own world, full of young kids, be a billionaire rock star as they have cool motorhomes and he would want Hayden back as a 13 year old. Sweet thoughts indeed. I told him if I had my way I would wish for the very same things he wishes for.
